1. Is there a way to change the default number of home screens without rooting?

2. What is the root directory of the internal storage?
ex. I'm trying to set a notification tone for TouchDown. The root directory on my old phone for the SDcard was /sdcard
 
I looked and could not find a way to change the amount of homescreens.

Have you tried looking through the users guide for your answers? i know i hate reading those things but sometimes it helps on something this new.

1. Download a home screen replacement, my favorite is launcher pro.
2. The file path for the "Sd card" is /mnt/sdcard, it acts just like an SD card in any other phone. Astro went right to it when I launched it, might be different for other file managers.

I've used ADW, Launcher Pro and GO Launcher. Of the 3, I think GO is definitely the best. It is smooth and has a TON of customization. I particularly like having the scrollable task bar at the bottom. I also really like the effects - I use an 'outside cube'. When you scroll through your screens, it transitions as if the screens are on the outside of a box - very cool effect. It also has a nice dialer and resizable widgets. On my Dinc, I only used 4 screens but you can have as few or as many as you want. On my Gnex, I'll probably stick with 4.
